GOOD!

Though I read only one chapter, I am very satisfied with this book. I think this book is also invaluable to engineer who want to know mathematical subjects behind fluid dynamics. I wanna read this book thoroughly.

superior fluids book for math and physics students

This is a great fluids book. And the previous reviewer needs to take a calulus class or something before going to try and read grownup books. Long live paterson!
